A/N:CAN'T HELP IT. ANOTHER LEAH FIC.


I REFUSE TO SURRENDER


I. Consumation


Everything is yellow, golden rays of sunlight, the dry land. She barely remembers the humidity now. When they were little Sam and her would go and sit on the cliffs, regardless that they were not allowed to. Leah has always defied the authority whether it was her parents, or who ever dared to cross her path and attempted to tame her. Sam on the other hand has a high regard for the rules, he's all about decorum, traditions and respect. Luckily for him, Leah holds a power over him no one else does, he loves her. And he would follow her to the end of the world if she asked him to, which is why she has been playing with the idea for weeks now. She wants to go back, to the place where they were born, to the place that's starting to fade in their minds. She closes her eyes and imagines the breeze of the ocean filling her nostrils, the cold wind blowing against their skin, her hair flowing freely, and the never ending rain of that beautiful place. But most of all she dreams about Sam with her in that magical place. The place she used to call home.

Sam pulls her hair back into a messy bun, trying to clean the drops of sweat from her neck. He kisses her shoulder affectionately and lets out a breath before speaking. After all he asked her to meet her here.

"The change is coming. They're holding the ceremony tonight" Sam finally utters the words she's been terrified to hear. Her eyes fly open, and she stares back at him, praying she misheard him. An internal battle breaks inside of her. She knows Sam like the back of the palm, and she knows he's determined, and embraced the whole destiny crap thing. They both knew it was a matter of time now. He's been growing at a steady rate, his temperature kept elevating on a daily basis, and the feeling of desperation settled in her weeks ago when their allies finally moved back.

"No, no, this… Sam no!" She pulls away from her touch, standing up, and looking all around. Expecting to find something , but aware that they're surrounded by miles of dry and dying nothingness..

"We don't have much time, they must be announcing it as we speak"Sam explains her. Leah however feels like screaming and murderous thoughts invade her mine. The Cullens. Leah hates them if she just met them.

The Cullen Family, renegades, a coven of leeches defying the reigning royal vampire family, the Volturi. They feed of animals not humans, that's what makes them their allies. Leah almost spits in her mouth everytime she hears her father using that word. They have hid in their lands at times, securing the future of her people as well. Quiletes are one of the few human tribes that have outlived the extermination the Volturi started three hundred years ago. Thanks to their spells, and the magic they posses, they have survived this war for centuries now. Moving and changing location constantly, fighting at times or simply hiding. They have made it. However with no vampires close to their people, almost fifty years have gone by without having one single shape shifter. Worried about the future, and the lacking protection and security the werewolves obviously provide. The council thought it appropriate to call the Cullens offering them to live in their lands once again in exchange of the triggering of the young warriors into full shape shifters.

Sam being the eldest of and a direct descendant from the last wolf pack, was always expected to change first.

"Everything will be okay" Sam assures her when the tears, and shaking envelop her body sending her into a complete hysterical outburst. They have prepared him to be a warrior, Leah holds no fear for the transformation, but for the parting that looms above their heads. The quiletes are no monarchy, but they have hierarchy. And Leah is not supposed to end up with Sam. Billy Black, Joshua Uley, Quil Ateara and her father have a personal unspoken agenda. Sam was meant to marry one of the Black twins. Rachel or Rebecca. And she was supposed to be with Jacob, the chief's only son. Her father has indulged her, letting her be with Sam for the time sake, but she knows he'll probably change his mind once the transformation occurs. She has pointed this many times to the man holding her tightly, but each one of them Sam has assured it won't happen.

She finds little comfort in the fact that Jacob seems to love another one as deeply as she loves Sam, but she knows that if it came to it, none of it will matter to her father or his. However Sam puts all their faith in imprinting, the magical love bond that emerges when the wolf looks at her soul mate for the first time after the transformation. Sam feels no doubt, their love is of the truest and greatest kind, and that imprinting will confirm it when the time comes. Leah wants to believe and deposit all her confidence in that phenomenon. But she's not naïve, she knows there's a slim chance, he doesn't imprint. Yet, the thought of being with anyone else other than him is unbearable, and Leah doesn't want to risk ir or take any chances.

He doesn't let her go until her sobs turn into shaky and altered breathing. She starts to feel dehydrated from the sun, Sam's heat and the overpowering crying she just experienced. A black raven flies by, and Leah takes it as a bad omen, she knows this is now or never "Marry me" she whispers not looking into his eyes, afraid her determination will crumble, if subjected to his gaze.

"Lee lee, of course I will, you'll see. Everything will work out. "Sam says scooping her into his arms again, and burying his nose, in her silky curls.

"Marry me. Marry me today"Leah takes her chance and everything starts coming out of her mouth, as if she had actually planned it "Marry me before leaving, and then no one will break us apart. Matrimony is a sacred union, and you promised me forever Sam."

"Leah you know is against tribal law, I can't marry you without the consent of your parents. The marriage would be worthless, it would make no difference to them"Sam replies her, pleading her with his eyes to stop the crazyness.

"Then let's run away from here. We could go to La Push. They'll never find us. And you don't have to phase, we can leave all this non sense behind."Leah declares, picturing a different future, where there are no responsabilities or honor. Just Sam and her.

"You know we can't"The sadness in his voice, lets her know she's fighting a lost battle. Indeed it's too late, he won't turn his back on their people. His father would be so proud of him, unlike her own who would probably be ashamed of her outburst. "We can Sam, we're not kids can go somewhere else, I don't care"

"Lee I love you. But running away is not the solution"Her determination means nothing, it's useless and pointless if Sam doesn't follow. Maybe she was wrong, maybe he wouldn't follow her to the end of the she loves him more, and that just adds another thorn to her side. Sam knows better than to force the words out, he waits in silence for her to move or speak. He can't bid farewell without the fervent promise of her love to him.

Leah opts to keep herself silent and ponders of the impending future laying ahead of them. She swore to her mother, she would keep herself pure until marriage. But somehow consumation is all she can think of as a worthy promise of love. What else than giving each other. And at least this way she'll be his completely

They walk in silence, side by side without touching. She leads him into the dungeons of this medieval castle they reside in. They walk for several minutes, and turn right and left several times. Sam has never been here, but its not in the least surprised Leah knows her way around. Finally she comes to an abrupt stop. The door is small, but the room is not. The contrast between the dark hallway they were just in and the brightness of this place if astounding. Everything is white , and Sam notices immediately that there must be some kind of spell.

Before he can ask what is this place, Leah is already in the middle of the room, smiling from head to toe. Because the smile it's in her eyes, the light blush, the cascading hair, and her open frame. She pushes one of the sleeves off her shoulder. And the redness becomes more pronounced in her features. Her other hand reaches for the other sleeve but Sam stops her "No, no, no. Come over here and let me do that" the voice's almost one of a stranger.

As though mesmerized, Leah walks towards him, her frame quivering slightly, the pounding of her heart like music to his ears. "I love you" he says as he slowly pushes the other sleeve. He tugs at the lace holding the dresss, and in less than a second, drops from her waist and it's on the floor. Leah lifts her feet carefully stepping out of the dress. Her breasts are securely wrapped in white linen as well as her thighs.

Leah's trembling hand reaches for the cord on Sam's pants. He places his hand over hers guiding her. Together they undress each other until, they have bared themselves before each other's eyes. They stand in the middle of the room, Sam's gaze never faltering from hers. Neither has ever done this, and they both know little of it, but they go with their instinct.

"I don't want to lose you"Leah moans softly

"Never. Do you hear me?" Sam says, his dark eyes penetrating into hers. "You will never lose me"Leah bits her lip when Sam reaches for her breast. "I love you Sam...I"

"Shh," He whispers into her ear as he pulls her close to kisses her shoulder and up her neck to her ear. "I worship you."Leah lets go of all thoughts of why she is doing this and what is going to happen after. She moans a little louder and presses herself against Sam's naked flesh. He pulls her hair back from her face and kisses her down her jaw. He lingers for a moment in her mouth. Naked pressed against this man, she's known and loved forever, she's never felt more comfortable and secure in her life. There's no shame or vulnerability, instead she feels herself opening on a whole new level and putting all her trust on this, as though it was meant to happen.

They finally make it to the bed. And with every kiss and caress, Leah feels the need to scream her love for him, but she finds herself silenced by the weight of his intense stare. "Lee" her name rolls of his tongue. His lips touch her softly before moving a bit closer and kissing her lightly. She craves more, but he pulls away and wraps his arms around her, pulling her closer to him. His mouth, by her ear, begins to move and whisper softly words of love and adoration. His hand runs over her back. His whole body is pressed against her, she moves when she feels the hardness pressing into her side, wanting desperately to melt with him into one soul

Leah gasps loudly when she feels him enter and move inside her. At first it's slow, gentle , delicate, as if she were a procelain doll. but with each thrust Sam gains momentum. Leah screams his name, digging her finger into his back and through his hair. Her body tenses up and then is released as she comes, feeling Sam give a few last strokes as he does too.

"You are my world. I love you Sam Uley, always and forever" those are the last words Leah breathes before they both collapse. He pulls out, and gives her a half smile, resting his hand on her heaving chest just above her even if Leah can't hear it. Sam can, their hearts are beating at the same exact pace.


"Where have you been?"Rachel yells at her when Leah comes into the room with tangled hair, and flushed skin.

"You didn't"Bella laughs. Leah is not perturbed by her friends remarks and sits in her vanity table reaching for the brush and lightening up the room with the brightest smile that has ever graced her face. Rebecca ignores the giggling of the two girls, and stands behind her friend, taking her silky curls in her hand to start braiding them. She pulls a strand of hair too strongly, and Leah gasps in pain.

"You shouldn't have"Rebecca says in a serene voice. A slight flash of jealousy crosses her eyes, but Leah pretends not to notice. Rebecca and Rachel are Sam's age, a year older than Leah, and like her submitted to the wishes and commands of their father, the Head and chief of the tribe. Billy Black.

"It will only make it worse, you know what this means, what will happen to Sam when they find out." The pain in her voice breaks Leah's bubble of fleeting elation."Leah how could you be so stupid.."

"It can't be that bad"Bella intervenes softly "Jake and I.."and it's Rachel who doesn't let her finish.

"Bella you are not the daughter of an Elder, or quilete for that matter. It's different because..."

"Stop coating it for her. Open your eyes Isabella. You won't marry my brother"Rebecca finishes. And Bella's face breaks. Leah wants to hit Rebecca for being so raw and such a bitch, but she knows the truth her words carry.

"Jacob loves you, and if it was up to him, he would marry you"Rachel adds a bit more softly "But they will never let him" A sob escapes their pale friend, and Rachel is there hugging her. Leah is cleaning her own tears. Her mother made her promise to save herself for a reson, if Sam doesn't imprint on her when he comes back and they find out, she will be the disgrace of her family and Sam will have to pay for taking her innnocence.

Rebecca knows, she's been in Leah's shoes, like Leah she fell for the wrong guy. But in her case it was worse. His name was Michael, he had the bluest eyes, Leah had ever seen, and he was not quilete, he was like Bella pale skinned living under the protection of the quilete. When they were discovered,he was banished from their lands, and probably ended up as a vampire's meal. Rebecca earned her father's forgiveness, and accepted an arranged marriage to Embry Calll, the bastard son of Joshua Uley. No other quilete would take her after Michael.

They stayed silent,Rachel trying to comfort a breaking Bella. And Rebecca finishing up a teary Leah. Two white gowns, a silver one and blue one were brought by Leah's cousin Emily. Rachel and Leah were dressed in white, for the ceremony, the elder's virgin daughters. Rebecca was forced to wear silver, a symbol of her engagement. And Bella not quilete was obliged to dress in blue like Emily.

Sue Clearwater came into the room moments after, with little Claire on her arms. "Girls our guests are here,Emily take Claire"Sue said dropping the baby on the young girl's arm. Sue had taken the child under her care like she had done so long ago with Emily and Evelyn.

Leah pitied her cousin sometimes. The reason why they had moved from La Push ten years ago to this dessert like place, was the attack to the Makah people, luckily Emily and Evelyn had been at La Push. But now not only was Emily an orphan but Evelyn had died giving birth to Claire. Emily would probably never get married. Sue had practically turned Emily into Leah's lady in waiting, and Claire complicated things for her. She was not quilete so she didn't even receive the same treatment from the rest of the people like Leah did. Sure she was pretty but nowhere near was beautiful as Leah. It made Leah feel sometimes guilty. Many times she had fought with her mother about it, but like everything else in this forsaken rule ridden tribe it was useless to defy what was stablished. Leah smiled at her cousin ignoring Rebeccas stern look, taking Claire form Emily's hands.

Bella was already composed and was tying the laces on Rachel's dress. Sue like the perfectionist she was, moved Bella aside and finished it herself. Leah tried to concentrate on the adorable girl in her ams, she was cooing and speaking kind words to the girl, when Claire was abruptly taken from her arms by her mother.

"Emily take Claire"Sue said for a second time. Emily smiled softly at Leah and left the room with the baby. Bella followed after Emily. Sue gave them final instructions and left the room.

"Do you think they'll find out"Leah finally asked, the fear and horro settling in the pit of her stomach.

"Your mother would've noticed something was off..."

"But she didnt" Rachel said happily "You just need to be careful"

"No!!"Rebecca censored "You can't do it again Leah. I mean it, If you really love Sam, you'll let him go at least for now." Rebeca was saying what Leah had asked herself earlier today.

Did she love him enough to let him go?

...

...

...

Yes. If it was necesary.

.

.

.

But was she willing to surrender when he didn't want to leave??

...

...

...

No.


it's okay if you think this is insane or a ridiculous universe. everybody's entitled to their opinion.

a/N: Okay to clear a few things up, this is Blackwater it's just going to take some time to get there.

In this world the volturi control everything. they have exterminated most of the human civilizations. they only keeps humans as slaves and breed them to feed of them. the quiletes along with other small groups of resistance live in hiding. Obviously in this fic quiletes have more powers than just shape shifting, and they will be revealed as the fic progresses lol.

the quilete's current land is not only populated by quiletes they have picked up other people along the way,(i.e. charlies, bella emily, etc) and well the cullens have been on and off their land. They have even fought together, so in this fic, quiletes are not prejudiced or raised to hate them. Well at least most of them don't, Leah well she's the exception.

anyway's i have an outline but I have absolutely no idea how many chapters will this fic take me or how soon i can update...i have 3 other fics going on,....so yeah i just couldn't help myself and post this crazy fic.
